Thanks for the info man.
I am kinda new to this whole dyno thing- thanks for being kind brother.
Yeah the warranty is a big deal- stage III brings plenty of power to the table for me- something I just couldn't feel in the PPK.
Different strokes for different folks so they say!

I am hoping that the Cobb tune has significantly better numbers that the Dinan Stage II. I do like the Dinan Stage II tune allot. I want to be moved to drop the money on Cobb!

Does anyone have any thoughts on what Cobb might be able to produce?

If you are staying stock? Possibly a little more. The real advantage in Cobb and GIAC is the allowance for catless/race cat downpipes. If you add one but don't tune for it you get a small bump, but you leave a lot of power on the garage floor.

i'm quite satisfied. the sigh was for saying I wouldn't spend the money to do it... then impulse-buying the ic/oil cooler/upgrade haha

Ahhh okay- no regrets here man.
Don't forget the car is also worth more at a private sale (for the right buyer).
The only thing I KIND OF regret is killing my CPO but hey, pay to play,
isn't that what they say?
